Re: in 6SN7 terms

Not to interrupt, but I agree about the Mullard CV569/ECC35 tall boys and short fat-base. Both are awesome tubes, and are my long time favs. My 2nd favs are the 40s Tung Sol black glass 6SU7 (military spec 6SL7). A tad less musical, but perhaps more linear? I've tried about 10 different NOS types and always come back to the Mullards. You can also find them relabeled as Philips Miniwatt or also Valvo. Brown bases sound fractionally better than black base.
